I play a lot of story games, they’re just so fun! Then it came to me: What if I hired a bunch of people to help me make one. What will the story be? Zoo Story!
Builder - We expect the builds to be low to medium poly, but detailed with decor like trash cans, animal information signs, etc.
Scripter: Randomly chosen players to talk, a choice at the end for different endings, animals moving around in the zoo, animals running loose (at a certain point in time in the story), and weapon damage (there will be battles thought the story).
Thumbnail Designer: 2D and 3D thumbnails both work. Also, be prepared to make more for large updates!
The payment for each role should in no way be equal. Builder and Scripter should have similar percent’s, but the Thumbnail Designer should realistically not have a percent - especially the same percent as a scripter or builder. Instead you should commission them.
You should give more information for the scripter. I don’t play Story games, and I don’t intend to go and research them for this job as your payment allocation and information is lacking.
In my opinion, for a simple story game, the builder is equivalent to a scripter in this case.
For a game that is more script heavy, then a scripter would be paid more, but usually story games aren’t too complicated to script.
While scripting is very crucial, building holds lots of importance as well. Projects should vary the importance of scripting and building… it’d be a little biased to think that for every game. For a story game like this, scripting wouldn’t exactly be too complicated or much work.
I might make another post saying I need a scripter, because I have a builder asking about the job. I’m really not sure. I just want to keep posting so this topic doesn’t close.
I’m interested in the thumbnail design, but why do thumbnail designers get 0% profit? gfx design is a hard task and I think it deserves to get a bit of profit.
Thumbnail artists need payment.
I take around an hour or 2 to make my art, and if you work irl you can get 10 dollars an hour for that (1k robux if it’s really good.)
Plus, there is no backup payment if the game flops. Oh well, if you earn 10 robux, the scripter and builder get 3 robux each, and gfx artist gets 0.
